USE CASE:

SaaS companies: the work behind outbound stacks

Read this if you need outbound stacks for SaaS companies and you would rather see the real options than a pitch. Mamba Labs builds the Apify actors named here, so Outbound Infrastructure Fingerprint is something you run yourself against your own list of SaaS companies.

The situation

SaaS companies skew outbound stacks, for a reason specific to them. Any outbound stacks method has to survive this: SaaS companies sell to other businesses and publish almost nothing about their own numbers. Worth knowing about SaaS companies, since outbound stacks inherits it: headcount flatters them, because contractors and alumni linger on a company page for years. We keep 1 preconfigured task for outbound stacks on SaaS companies, across 1 tool.

Traditional Search Tools

  • G2, for SaaS companies. Categories and review counts, free to read, and it only covers vendors that asked to be listed.
  • Signing up for their list. The fastest route and the one most people forget. Use a personal address, wait a week, read the headers.
  • BuiltWith or Wappalyzer. Strong on website technology, weak on sending infrastructure. They see the marketing site, not the cold email domains, which are deliberately kept off it.
  • Read the headers. Get one of their emails, open the raw source, and read the Received chain and the return path. Everything is in there. You need one email, which is the hard part.
